Definitions
- This invention generally relates to catalysts. More particularly, the invention relates to organo-titanate catalysts useful for preparing macrocyclic oligoesters.
- Linear polyesters such as poly(alkylene terephthalate) are generally known and commercially available where the alkylene typically has 2 to 8 carbon atoms. Linear polyesters have many valuable characteristics including strength, toughness, high gloss, and solvent resistance. Linear polyesters are conventionally prepared by the reaction of a diol with a dicarboxylic acid or its functional derivative, typically a diacid halide or ester. Linear polyesters may be fabricated into articles of manufacture by a number of techniques including extrusion, compression molding, and injection molding.
- macrocyclic oligoesters were developed which are precursors to linear polyesters. Macrocyclic oligoesters exhibit low melt viscosity, which can be advantageous in some applications. Furthermore, certain macrocyclic oligoesters melt and polymerize at temperatures well below the melting point of the resulting polymer. Upon melting and in the presence of an appropriate catalyst, polymerization and crystallization can occur virtually isothermally.
- One method for synthesis of the macrocyclic oligoesters includes the step of contacting a diol of the formula HO-A-OH with a diacid chloride of the formula:
- A is an alkylene, or a cycloalkylene or a mono- or polyoxyalkylene group; and B is a divalent aromatic or alicyclic group.
- the reaction typically is conducted in the presence of at least one amine that has substantially no steric hindrance around the basic nitrogen atom.
- An illustrative example of such amines is l,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO).
- DABCO l,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane
- the reaction usually is conducted under substantially anhydrous conditions in a substantially water immiscible organic solvent such as methylene chloride.
- the temperature of the reaction typically is between about -25°C and about 25°C. See, e.g., U.S. Patent No.
- Macrocyclic oligoesters may also be prepared via the condensation of a diacid chloride with at least one bis(hydroxyalkyl) ester such as bis(4-hydroxybutyl) terephthalate in the presence of a highly unhindered amine or a mixture thereof with at least one other tertiary amine such as triethylamine, in a substantially inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride, chlorobenzene, or a mixture thereof. See, e.g., U.S. Patent No. 5,231 ,161 to Brunelle et al.
- Another method for preparing macrocyclic oligoesters is to depolymerize linear polyester polymers in the presence of an organotin or titanate compound.
- linear polyesters are converted to macrocyclic oligoesters by heating a mixture of a linear polyester, an organic solvent, and a trans-esterification catalyst such as a tin or titanium compound.
- the solvents used such as o-xylene and o-dichlorobenzene, usually are substantially free of oxygen and water. See, e.g., U.S. Patent Nos. 5,407,984 to Brunelle et al. and 5,668,186 to Brunelle et al.
- the organo-titanate catalyst should be soluble in the solvent of the depolymerization reaction, should be in a physical state that allows it to be readily added to the reaction, and should be an active catalyst capable of establishing the desired equilibrium in a reasonable time.
- One technique for preparation of organo-titanate catalysts uses butanediol together with diethylene glycol. See, U.S. Patent No.
- Catalysts prepared according to this method contain moieties of diethylene glycol, which are later incorporated into the macrocyclic oligoesters prepared using the catalysts.
- the incorporation of diethylene glycol moieties causes deleterious effects on the mechanical properties (e.g., modulus) and thermal properties (e.g., melting point and heat distortion temperature) of the polyester prepared from the macrocyclic oligoesters.
- macrocyclic oligoesters i.e., macrocyclic oligoesters substantially free from macrocyclic co-oligoesters.
- the material e.g., polybutylene terephthalate polymerized from macrocyclic oligoesters
- the part is less likely to deflect if the material (e.g., polybutylene terephthalate polymerized from macrocyclic oligoesters) has a high heat distortion temperature.
- organo-titanate catalysts of the invention are useful for preparing macrocyclic oligoesters that are substantially free from macrocyclic co-oligoesters. Further, the organo-titanate catalysts of the invention may be used to prepare macrocyclic co- oligoesters. [0010] In one aspect, the invention is directed to a mixture of reaction products of
